Dana 27 Spider Gears

Alright guys. I am going to buy a set of spider gears for my Dana 27. I've searched all over the web for the cheapest price and the most expensive price, and they all seem to be pretty comparable.
They must all be the same, because they don't ask for any gearing type. Any Dana 27 spider gear will work for a Dana 27 right?

 

Just my two bits but I purchased a set of good used spider gears from Herm for about half what repro's cost. I believe OmixADA supplies the repros. At the time the best price was RockAuto.

 

But the spider gears are the same across the board? I dont need to be worried about gearing?

 

Axle gear ratio is not affected.
Open differential (stock) model 25/27 spiders gears are the same.
Except for the Powr-Lok limited slip.
The Jeep p/n is 926544 if you want to search.
I'd avoid the offshore junk but to each his own.

 

I have a couple whole units. Whst are you looking for?

 

The whole unit.

 

What gear ratio? D30 or a 27/25?

 

I have a dana 27 front axle. Dont know the gear ratio.

 

Use a silver pencil and mark a line on the yoke and a rotor. Spin the rotor 2x and count the rotations on the yoke and divide by 2. That'll give ya an idea of the ratio. Most F134s seem to be 5.38, but I think the later ones might have more mild gearing.

I have my old D25. Working take out. I think I have a D30 with 4.27s too. "I'd have to check the pile" lol

I'd recommend against using used gears, specially on something this old. They may never lash right. I tried it in a much newer axle, and ended up needing R&P anyway. Get a whole unit of the right gears if you can.

 

I have the spider gears I took out when I put in the Lock right. Would that help?

 

Assuming that you have the cover off, the gear ratio is stamped right on the side of the ring gear. Number of teeth on the ring divided by the number on the pinion.

 

I think the bigger ones with the internal splines to match the axle shaft are called side gears and the other two are the spiders.

 

the two smaller gears and washers are what I need, and the vertical pin as well. here is a pic from my thread "4wd is broken"

 

I only have the gears not the pin. Send me a PM if you think you can use them.

guys, I have a set of spider gears on the way!!! woo hoo!!! (thanks jzeber!)

now...how do I get that pin that exploded in my picture above?

 

Yukon may have a D27 carrier pin

 

Crown Spider Gear Kit Standard Differential Dana Model 25 & 27

ended up buying a whole new spider gear kit. the cost of a new carrier pin negated the cheap gears. but, at least everything will be brand new now. hopefully get it all installed this weekend

 

Sorry, was traveling for work. Sometimes new ends up being cheapest in the long and short runs. Swapping out just the spider gears should be pretty easy, just be sure to clean the housing well as there will metal in there after the blow up.

 

My '62 F-134 has 4.27 gears in it. Dana 44 Powr-Lok in back and Dana 25 regular diff in front.
